AbstractThe vortex gas injection into plasma torch is considered as a method for reducing electrodes erosion. In order to investigate the effects of vortex gas injection on plasma structure, as well as the effect of gas viscosity on the rate of rotation, a three-dimensional nonequilibrium and time-dependent non-transferred DC plasma torch model has been simulated.

In the present paper, the micron-size silver and titanium powder with desired weight ratios is used to produce the silver-titanium nanocomposite using the self-developed thermal plasma equipment. The mixture is fed into the plasma torch flame by the powder feed system and argon carrier gas. After evaporation, the particles are cooled inside the cooling chamber […]
